21 92 Diagon Lane (4)
The two of them waved into the air, and there was no imaginary monster in front of them.
Because they are not in the original room at all.
"What is this place?" Turning on the flashlight, Fred's eyes widened - it was a small room, the walls were piled up with all kinds of books, and rolls and rolls of parchment, "George! Fred shouted, eager to find his brother in this little room that he could see, maybe he would hide under his desk? Fred dragged his chair away.
Anna glanced at the large wardrobe suspiciously, could this be the kind of vanishing cabinet that Malfoy used to let the Death Eaters into Hogwarts? Anna casually blocked the cabinet door with the chair that Fred had dragged away.
Turning around, Anna looked at the paper taped to the wall, and the sign in the lower right corner showed that it was a map of Diagon Alley, with one of the buildings circled.
"Hey! Fred, look at this! Anna pointed to the building that had been circled, "Do you know where Diagon Alley is?" ”
Fred leaned in, "I'll see... Y-shaped... Intersection..."
He was a little surprised, "It's Gringotts!" ”
Anna pursed her lips and a not-so-good thought came to her, flipping through the cluttered desk and finding a notebook.
Fred shone the light of the flashlight, "Nicol. Lemay? Who's that? ”
Fred was confused, and Anna broke out in a cold sweat.
Great-grandfather! What exactly do you want to do? Black Bear Guard! Disappear the Cabinet! Gringotts! And the Philosopher's Stone! How do you feel that you are going further and further on the road of villains!
"There's another prophecy here—
The loser who has gone astray seeks the whispers of the forest, the soul binds him forward, pleading, wishing, he salutes the hero, embarks on the journey of the dragon's abyss, and darkness returns..."
Anna was silent for a moment—this prophecy was Professor Quirrell! Possessed by Voldemort! Salute Harry at the bar! Break into Gringotts, guarded by dragons!
Got this fable and understood that the 'Dragon Abyss' represents Gringotts' great-grandfather rushed back and wanted to wait for the opportunity to go to the vault and steal the Philosopher's Stone? Although there are still some doubts... Could it be that great-grandfather was the second person besides Voldemort to think about the Philosopher's Stone?
Anna opens the system and finds that the task is not complete.
"Whew..."He breathed a long sigh of relief, it seems that the conjecture just now is not correct, and he thought that his great-grandfather really wanted the Philosopher's Stone...
"Wow!" Fred crouched in the fireplace in the corner of the room and called out to Anna, "Anna! You have to come and see! There's a passage in the fireplace chimney! ”
The chimney was so dark that if it hadn't been for the flashlight, Fred wouldn't have noticed a large hole in the inner wall of the chimney, a meter from the ground.
The two brought in some books and piled them in the fireplace, and Fred stepped on them first.
"Oh alas, there's only one wall here, do you want to come up and take a look?"
Anna was pulled up, and it was obvious that there was just a simple wall in front of her—but perhaps the walls of Diagon Alley weren't that simple.
Sure enough, Anna found an inconspicuous keyhole on a brick, and before the keyhole could speak, she hurriedly put a head in it—
Swallowed by the keyhole as always, crawling down on the carpet, Anna is almost getting used to this operation, isn't the entire 92 Diagon Alley carpeted just to prevent falls?
Fred and Fred helped each other to get up, picked up the flashlight that had fallen on the floor, and in front of him was a smaller room, with only a sofa bed and a set of tables and chairs, and there were relatively few books here.
Anna picked up a book that was placed on the couch, "The Tales of the Poet Bean?" ”
"Oh! Mom coaxed Ron—our youngest brother would tell these stories when he was sleeping, and Ron kept clamoring for an invisibility cloak, and George and I gave him a normal cloak—"
Fred was a little happy at the mention of Ron, "And then we pretended we hadn't seen him for a day!" Hahaha he really didn't wear anything inside and ran to the kitchen to eat cookies, leaving his mother dumbfounded! ”
Oh, poor Ron... But...
"Cloak of invisibility?"
Anna had a bad premonition.
"That's from 'The Legend of the Three Brothers,'" Fred picked up the book and flipped it through, "I remember it was right behind 'The Wizard's Hairy Heart'..."
"Here," Fred said, showing Anna the book.
The page was densely packed with sketches and annotations, and both of them opened their eyes wide, "I didn't expect your great-grandfather to have studied these fairy tales." ”
Where is this a study of fairy tales, Anna looked at the resurrection stone part of the book in particular, and the side was written 'Godric's Hollow'-
This is to study the Deathly Hallows!
